A metal tube extrusion press has a detachable mandrel M provided at its rear end with a head 22 arranged to be moved radially into engagement with a cavity 24 at the front end of a mandrel holder 28. The latter carries a detachable coupling 23 containing the cavity 24. Mandrel holder 28 is movable axially by a hydraulic piston 14 disposed behind the main press ram 10, Fig. 1 (not shown), to project the coupling 23 out of the front of the press stem 8, Fig.3 (not shown), whereby the mandrel will fall out of the cavity to a mandrel transfer gear 56, Fig. 1 (not shown), which may be of the kind described in Specification 1,091,867 and include mandrel cooling means. A replacement mandrel is then moved vertically into the press axis to engage within the cavity 24, and the mandrel holder 28 is retracted into the press stem 8 whereby the conical nose 52 of a rod 36 engages within a corresponding recess in the mandrel head 22 to press the latter against a lip 25 of the coupling, Fig. 4 (not shown). The rod 36 is biased forwardly by a spring 42, Belleville washers, or by fluid pressure but its forward movement is limited by a stop 47 which engages an abutme t 49 in the press crosshead 50. Hydraulically actuated gags 18, Fig. 1 (not shown) may be used to cause the mandrel M to move forwardly with the press stem 8 during extrusion of a billet into a tube.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the production of methyl acetylene
IPC: C07C11/22
Filed: 1949-01-18
Abstract: Methyl acetylene and allene are obtained by subjecting a dihalogenated propane or a monohalogenated propylene, or a mixture thereof, to decomposition at a temperature of 920 DEG  C. to 1050 DEG C.  It is preferred to employ the chloro compounds, particularly alpha- and beta-monochloropropylene.  When a dichloro propane is used as starting material it may be converted directly to methyl acetylene or it may be converted to a monochloropropylene, e.g. by treatment with alkali and the monochloropropylene, then decomposed at 920 DEG to 1050 DEG  C.  The halogenated compound may be mixed with a diluent gas, e.g. nitrogen, methane, or carbon dioxide or preferably with steam which is used in a molar ratio to chlorinated hydrocarbon of 8 : 1 to 20 : 1.  It is preferred to use contact times of 0.01 to 0.1 second and to subject the products to rapid cooling.  The reaction may be carried out in the presence of an activator selected from oxygen, chlorine or compounds capable of liberating free halogen under the reaction conditions, e.g. thionyl chloride, and the decomposition tube may contain silica chips as packing material. Allene may be recycled to the decomposition zone in which it is largely converted to methyl acetylene.  In examples, a mixture containing methyl acetylene and allene is obtained by: (1) passing a mixture of alpha and beta chloropropylenes and water through a silica tube at 920 DEG  C., the gas mixture being preheated to 550 DEG  C. before entering the decomposition zone and the vapour contact time in the decomposition zone calculated at 20 DEG  C. and atmospheric pressure being 0.05 second; (2) passing allyl chloride and steam through a silica tube at 970 DEG  C., the vapour contact time being 0.07 second; (3) decomposing as in (1) a preheated mixture of 1 : 2-dichloropropane and steam at 1000 DEG  C. with a vapour contact time of 0.07 second; (4) subjecting a mixture of 2 : 2-dichloropropane and steam, preheated to 800 DEG  C., to decomposition at 1000 DEG  C. with a vapour contact time of 0.05 second; (5) decomposing a preheated mixture of 1 : 3-dichloropropane and steam as in (4); (6) subjecting a preheated mixture of 1 : 1-dichloropropane and steam to decomposition at 950 DEG  C. as in (1).  The products of examples (3) to (6) also contain alpha and beta chloropropylenes. Specifications 518,325 and 573,532 are referred to. According to the first Provisional Specification the decomposition may be effected at 600 DEG  to 1500 DEG  C. and in the presence of metals, metal oxides, or metal salts such as metal halides as catalysts whilst the second Provisional Specification gives the decomposition temperature as 850 DEG  to 1050 DEG  C.

Abstract: 1,144,608. Television. WARWICK ELECTRONICS Inc. 10 Jan., 1967 [10 Jan., 1966], No. 1405/67. Heading H4F. The output of a video amplifier 11 is shown in Fig. 2, and is seen to comprise, as well as sync signal 21 and picture signals 20, a noise spike 22 having an amplitude rising above that of the sync signals. This would normally result in a sync separator circuit 10 being unable to detect and separate out the sync signal following the noise spike. To overcome this a normally non-conducting triode circuit 36 is provided, having a fixed cathode potential, but with grid and anode potentials controlled by means of potential divider circuits, proportional to the output of the video amplifier. The circuit elements are so chosen (figures given), that the triode only conducts when a signal at the output of the video amplifier rises above a predetermined threshold 46 have chosen to be the potential of the sync pulses. The noise spike is thus limited such that at the input to the sync separation circuit 10 the limited waveform of Fig. 3 appears.

Abstract: 535,276. Electromagnetic interrupters. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO., LTD., and THOMPSON, W. G. Jan. 31, 1940, No. 1922. [Class 38(v)] [Also in Group XXXV] A direct current traction system 4, 5, energized by a multi-anode, mercury-arc rectifier 1 and transformer 2 from a three-phase supply 3, is protected against over-voltage due to regeneration by having a loading resistance 6 connected across it by means of an igniter valve 7 which is fired by an induction coil 10. The primary 13 of the coil is energized through a rectifier 16 from a tertiary winding on transformer 2, and the trembler 11 is normally held attracted to the core 12 by a winding 15 which is energized by the difference between the voltage across 4, 5 and that derived from a rectifier 18. The latter normally predominates, but when the former rises to a given value, the trembler is released and valve 7 fires, the coil 10 being then put out of action by a winding (not shown) which is in series with resistance 6 and acts similarly to winding 15. When the current in 4, 5 is again in the normal direction, a polarized relay 27 energizes a winding 26 to close contacts 24 and, a winding 25 being already energized to close contads 23, a short-circuit is placed around a shuntcontact or winding 21, the contact 20 of which opens and disconnects the resistance 6, so allowing 23 to reopen and winding 15 to resume control.
